she has written her book aud in it she
has made the characters SO violently

and she may have violated some of the

In Sioux City yesterday the district
court was occupied with argument upon
q motion for the dismissal OF the oase
against John Arenrdorf, charged with
the murder of DR.. Haddock. The ground
for the motion is that Arensdorf has
onoe been placed in jeopardy and not
convicted. As the Jury disagreed, the
claim is rather weak one.

THE MISSOURI PACIFIC EXTENSION

Messrs. II. Mclaughlin, Chief engl-
neere of the Missouri Pacific Railroad,
and MIR. VIM. Bagnall, the chief COIL
tractor, were in the city last Monday
to look after matters connected with
the extension of their road up the riv-
er. They say that there is no question
that the road will be built during the
ensuing year, and that it will be the
best railway in the state. The grade
is to be confined to a maximum of 16
feet to the mile, to be rock ballasted,
with the heaviest steel rails. 1t will
somewhat shorten the distance, but the
great advantage to be gained will be in
the low grade and heavy rails, which
will enable trains to be run between
St. Louis and Kansas City in six and
a half hours.
This will place Lexington within
an hour and a quarter of Kansas
City, and be of inestimable advant-
age to it. MI. Bagnall thinks shops
should be located here, and adj
vised that the people offer the road a
tract of land for the purpose, and
thereby show their good will, which
matter was deferred until a future
visit of the officers of the road. Lex
iugton wants these shops and is ready
to do its part to secure them. There is
no better place for them. 1t is healthy
has good water, gas, pavements
affords cheap living, and has al abund.
ance of fuel.
We believe it would be very unwise
for our people to treat the road illiber-
ally. insofar as it can be done
it should freely be given rights.
of-way, depot and shop grounds,
just as we should be willing to treat
any other company, as this movement
will give us a practically new line Of
railway.

We are glad to see that the militia
bill has gone to engrossment i'll the
house OF representatives of the state.
The examples we have had in Missouri
Illinois and New Jersey of a supple
mentary constabulary in the Pinker-
tons, have taught us a lesson thai
should not 60 unheeded. A we'll Or
g~anized and disciplined militia is the
bulwark of a free state. 1t is not a
standing army. 1t is the right arm OF
the people to enforce the law and 10
maintain peace in times of riot, blood
shed and incendiarism. The only rea-
son Ia w-abiding men a allege against
a moderate expenditure for this pur-
pose is, that it is not needed; that the
people can take care OF themselves and
of the enforcement Of the laws. This
may be true for years, yet in a moment
the necessity arises which ten times over
justifies the previous preparation. Be-
side, who can calculate the repression
of overt acts which ensues from the
knowledge by the crimiually inclined
that there is power in the state to en-,
force its laws. BY all means, gentle
men, pass the militia bill. Mr.. HickliI
is voting right on this question as Oh
almost every other.

Grover Cleveland is a better demo.

Grover Cleveland Is a better demo-
crat than the spollsmen who are con-
tinually berating him for not turning
out the republicans faster. He showed
that in his veto Of the bill to appropri-
ate $4,000 for the distribution of seeds
to the drouth stricken counties of
Texas. In his veto message he said:-
81 can find no warrant for such all ap-
preparation in the constitution, and 1
do not believe that the power and duty
OF the general government ought to be
extended to the relief of individual
suffering which is in no manner prop
erly related to the public service or
benefit" This is sound doctrine. The
money in the United States treasury
can, constitutionally, be expended in
but one way, for the government of
the country economically administered.
How ten democratic senators could
vote for such a bill we cannot see. This
is not a p%aternal, socislistic, commu-
nal government as 30 many congress-
men seem to think in their effort to
spend the surplus 1t is a little sin
gular that Mr.. Cook, a democratic
senator from Texas, should have had
to submit to this rebuke from General
Hawley:-"The legislature has been in
session there for weeks. 1t is a state
without a dollar of debt-an empire
that is a boast to us when we talk with
Europeans about u sovereign states,
and it is here passing the hat for $lO,-
900. submit that If my Legislature
in the little state Of Connecticut, was
asking 10000 for garden seeds and got
it 1 would resign" The only answer
MIR. Coke could make was, that Texas
was able to take care of herself, that
she asked no charity from the general
government, but ''We only ask to be
taeated as the people of other states
are treated" That is, we only ask
for II share of the public plumber.
Truly,a big surplus is a constant temp.
tation. Let us pray that the fiftieth
congress may have more patriotism
than the forty-ninth, and that it will
reform the tariff.

and when ten per cent. of the stock is
snbcribed and ten per cent. paid in

be held in Washington Or New York
